Anyone planning going to Bosham?

It may get me out of my lethargy and get a boat out of the shed.

Re: It's not an Enterprise... but what is it??
Optimistic at £300. I watched it drift past first time round and he had it listed at £500! Sure the world loves an optimist but come on... minor damage? easily repaired?,,, low cost?? No mention of any spars and didn't care about the village in Scotland bit. I`m afraid we have become a bit jaded ov...

Re: Trophies Return
Does John Andrews still have the wingnut? He did have it last time we did a search and was going to pass it to Rupert. Do you still have it John?

Re: National Rally - who is coming?

Thanks to the generosity of a Hunts member putting me up ( should that be putting up with me) and a brave boat owner lending me her boat and partner.
Really looking forward to it.

Re: Cotton sails
I was always under the impression that the seams were close together to allow for stretching. A large gap between seams would stretch very differently to those close together thus allowing for sail shape to be maintained.
I really haven't a clue what I am talking about though.

GP14 mast
I have a very nice Super spars Alloy mast which must go. It was on my old GP14 which is sadly no longer. Its free to anyone who thinks they can use it.
I would prefer it went to someone who can use it as a spare than cut it up and give it to the local gipsies.
